I know that it is standard to resurface a flywheel when doing a clutch job. I have never heard of resurfacing a pressure plate though. Is there ever a reason to resurface them? Does it have to do with them being spring loaded?

if it's good, re-use them, but don't take any more life out of it by machining away the seating surface. i've reused pressure plates that did not have a lot of time on them.
(i don't believe in turning / grinding brake rotors either. minor grooves are not a problem, and major grooves are cause for replacement...) |
